Unicorn Hunter

10

Be the winning bidder on any "unicorn" car in the Auction House.

You can get this either one of two ways: You can import a save from FM3 that has VIP status. Or, you can get it the way the game suggests, by bidding on a "unicorn" car, which Turn 10 releases every so often (Note: that these cars are usually VERY expensive - and are usually hard to obtain.) As a side note, Unicorn Cars cannot be gifted or auctioned/sold by normal/VIP players only those at Turn 10 themselves can do this.

In the previous games only turn10 have been able to list unicorn cars. I doubt they are going to change it for this as it would just become high end economy sinks (we're talking like billions of in game credits)

Hang on... surely if you own a unicorn car in forza 3, you could transfer it over to 4, get someone you trust to buy it off you, then have them sell it back to you, you could both get the achievement easily, unless im forgetting something...

According to a post in forzacentral.com the 2007 Lamborghini Superleggera and the 2007 Ferrari 430 Scuderia are unicorn cars which you get via FM3 Profile Import if in FM3 Garage ~ Or buy in Auction House. Now both of this cars are available at the VIP Car Pack. Can anyone confirm this?

Got this when I imported my Forza 3 file, which is weird because I cannot remember having any Unicorn Cars. I was gifted a couple cars for importing my file, maybe those count as "winning" unicorn cars?

Hey guys I'm new here and buzzing bout getting forza 4 after reading the unicorn list and cars u can transfer over the 2007 Ferrari 430 Scuderia is a unicorn car in 4 but can be transferred over from 3 so my question is do u automatically get this achievement for transferring over ??

So apparently You can get it for importing a FM3 file. However, if you didn't receive any unicorn cars in FM3, and didn't pre-order FM4, then you are SOL. So! All you need is a 2007 Ferrari 430 Scuderia, or a 2007 Lamborghini Superleggera. You can obtain these in FM3 through special events, or by purchasing the VIP car pack for 800 MSP. So if you want the easy way to do it, buy the VIP pack, then transfer your save over. Problem Turn 10?

If you have the VIP pack either from the Limited Edition FM3 or purchased it for 800MSP. But you need to have bought the 2007 Lamborghini Superleggera in FM3 before importing for it to work. Kudos to xGeegx.

Yes yes, I was just about to post that it was successful for me, but I had to leave for work. So buying the VIP car pack and importing ANY of the cars DOES WORK. I used the Chevrolet Corvette ZR1, because it was the cheapest to buy (100,000 Cr) I imported it and the achievement popped up instantly. The cars from the VIP pack that will grant you this achievement are as follows:

so, if you didn't have any of these cars in fm3 and already imported your fm3 account..is the only way to get this achievement by bidding on one? More importantly, how do you search for them in the auction house?

@#46 No sir, you can still get this achievement by taking your saved data, moving it onto a storage device and starting up a new game. After finishing the first race, you'll be asked to import your save, which can then import again. After you import it, the achievement will pop, if you had one of the mentioned cars in your FM3 garage, and then you're welcome to go back to the dashboard and transfer your saved file back onto your Xbox. Also, if you wanted to find one in the auction house, all you have to do is go to Community> Auction House> and then hit the Right Bumper to switch to "Unicorn cars only" mode. I also suggest you bring roughly 150 million credits with you as well because that's how much they're going for!

@#50 Yes, you must buy the VIP Car Pack for FM3 (it is 800 MSP, yes), then you have to BUY one of the cars to actually have at least one of them in you garage. The Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 is the cheapest. Once it is in your garage and you saved, pop in FM4, make sure that you have transferred your save data elsewhere or you don't have any saved data on your Xbox whatsoever. Pretty much start up the game, it'll throw you into the 458 Italia for the first race, then after that race is over, it'll ask you if you want to import your FM3 save. Hit the A button and pop goes the achievement! :)

well now the problem is when i go to reimport the save file i now have two "that1guy084" files...and i can only keep one of them...so when i choose my previous game the cars are not there...looks like ill have to start over to keep the unicorns?

If you want to keep the unicorns then yes, you'll have to start all over again. Otherwise, if you want to get your old file back (with no unicorns) then delete the saved game on your hard drive and put the old one back on the hard drive and you should be good to go again.

I thought this was going to be really hard to get, based on what I'd read about Unicorn cars, but i got it straight away from importing my Forza 3 Files. Does anyone know if it's a glitch that Turn 10's going to patch up, or if that's what they intended to happen? I've got some mates who want it, so obviously if they're patching it, they'll need to get it soon.

You both had unicorn cars in your FM3 garage and when they transferred to your FM4 garage, you got the achievement. Basically the achievement should say "have a unicorn car in your garage" because if you're the winning bidder on an auction, you basically own it then.

Ok this guide is only for people who have got Forza Motorsport 3 and own the VIP pack in Forza 3. I should also note that this guide is for people just starting to play forza 4 for the first time as you have to transfer your profile from forza 3 which you get a chance to do at the start of the game after completeing the first race. (An alternative is you could try to start a new save in forza 4 of another storeage device. e.g a USB stick but i dont know if that works). BTW The VIP pack in Forza 3 is 800msp and includes these cars ‘08 Aston Martin DBS, ‘09 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 ‘07 Ferrari F430 Scuderia, ‘07 Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera, and ‘07 Porsche 911 GT3 RS (997).So what you do is load up forza 3 and buy either the 07 Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera, or the ‘07 Ferrari F4

Just to add to the USB trick. I used another Xbox HDD that I had and restarted 3 only took about a half an hour to get the 100k for the ZR1, and then restarted 4. Got the achievement and then went back to my original HDD with my Lvl 50 F3 save and Lvl 22 F4 save. Took longer, but also works. Just another option.

1) If you have profile from Forza 3 and load it into Forza 4, this achievement will unlock so long as you have an Unicorn car to unlock with it. This will be the easiest way for you to get this achievement. You have to have a Unicorn Car in Forza 3 for this to work. It will be imported into Forza 4 at this point. When you ordered Forza 4 and were part of the Pre-Order Incentive Program Turn-10 did then you would have received a Mazda Unicorn Card which would be imported.

2) You can bid and win on a "unicorn" car in the Auction House. Be warned that these cars are rare and will be extremely expensive this way.

Sorry if anyones already posted this but i've noticed in my FM4 messages that if you upload a photo to turn10 with what they requested.. At the moment turn10 want:

Photo contest theme 'Alps Spotlight' - take a photo with your fav car on the Bernese alps and send it. Winner receives unicorn car of their choice an featured in game. If you won and get the car, im assuming that would also give you the achi?

Continuation from my #74 comment - The 3 gifted cars (1 unicorn) from Turn 10 are part of the Pre-Order Incentive Program.

You had to send an email to forza_preorder@microsoft.com with your gamertag in the subject line and a copy of the pre-order receipt. (Obviously it's to late for this now, but anyone that did this is in luck!)

That's just great people are already hacking there money on forza 4 so the car's are on 999,999,999 bids so im not going to get this achievement because of the ppl that think there like well good for hacking and thanks TURN 10 for fixing it from forza 3 you guy are the best :[ what sucks the most just because my bro was V.I.P on forza 3 and i was not he got the unicorn car when he imported his profile from forza 3 and i was not so did not get one ( we are both lvl 50) and one more thing thats TURN 10 for having great servers i lot 344,000 just because your craps server go down as im getting my money from the auction, so i loose the money and my car that i sold well gave away :(

Is there a way i can import my forza 3 file to my forza 4 even if i said no at the start. The only reason i had done that is because i thought i would have leveled up to 50 straight away and forza 4 would be boring if i was level 50 straight but is there another way? :/

every car is going for 999,999,999. even though they're obviously hackers that have this amount of money and will get banned, it's no consolation to those of us who possibly had a chance of affording one when the game first came out, as now people play this loads to get huge amounts of money more than the average gamer, and the cars aren't put down to affordable prices afterwards. stupid achievement, just encouranges glitching or playing 24/7 to even stand the slimmest chance of getting :

if you havnt got this (like me) good luck trying to get it turn 10 have taken the crs off auction for now :( would like to thank all the fook tards who made this happen and spoil a game for everyone else you guys are the true gamers of the future.clap clap clap

Wait, I have a question, if I bet on the cars that are in the VIP pack from Forza 3 (Aston DBS, Chevy ZR1, etc.)on Forza 4 and win, will I get the achievement? Some of the comments said that they were unicorn cars, and I really want this achievement. I need help, please!

this should be reported to microsoft has it is unachievable for most of us.for one its worded wrong it should be have a unicorn car from forza 3 draft over seems a few of you are getting it this way. thing is my m8 has a uni car he cant sell it of gift to anyone so how are we meant to get em with hacking the credits.

Just want to confirm I just got the achievement. If you have a memory stick or something just move your saved game file from your HDD to that, then get your FM3 disk, download the VIP pack for 800MSP (£7.00 in the UK) then buy a VIP car..i.e 2007 Lamborghini Superleggera as thats what I got. Save it, exit game, put in FM4 and it'll start a fresh game (as you moved your save file to an external hard drive), complete the lap and voila! 10GP.

I am confirming #29

According to a post in forzacentral.com the 2007 Lamborghini Superleggera and the 2007 Ferrari 430 Scuderia are unicorn cars which you get via FM3 Profile Import if in FM3 Garage ~ Or buy in Auction House. Now both of this cars are available at the VIP C

i got thi sby pure fluke the day the game came out saw a car i needed and bid. next thing i know i have chevo and a car and only cost me 13.000 for a dodge charger amd the chevo BONUS any one who dont believe me check out my profile W0BBLER007 THE SECOND 0 IS THE NUMBER NOT A LETTER -----------------------------

The cars always go on the 121st bid, being 999,999,999cr. So aswell as finding a unicorn, having a billion credits u also need to fluke being the 121st bidder. Joined a party last night of 5 guys. All had glitched the credits and offered the same for me for 800msp. Oh, and they thought it hillarious to buy all 5 available unicorns between them, even though they all had this cheevo. Thanks turn 10 for encouraging this crap with these BS cheevos.

Hey you guys are right You transfer two unicorn cars over From forza 3 the ferrari 430 scuderia which actually the second fastest drag car in the entire game I ran a 20.998 you can actually still transfer them to forza 44 and keep all the car you have now the only thing you will lose is your game progress and money but if it's worth it to you to have to unicorn cars and a super fast drag car get in touch with me and I'll walk you through it or just get in touch with me and I will explain it in more detail you can call or text my personal phonecall (520) 551-4518 it's in tucson arizona or get in touch with me via my gamertag and it's in all caps TRE DIZZZLE 520 This is no joke no scam And when you get restarted I will hook you up With some start up cash So get at me guys no joke get your u

if anyone is looking to join an xbox clan (we have over 800 members of all ages)....we play COD, Halo, Forza, GTA.....please visit www.teamknockout.net, you must have TKO in your motto and when you complete the application, please mention TKOxDarkxShotz referred you! :) happy hunting folks

There´s a simple solution to this problem. Turn 10 should just use the buyout option for their unicorns. A price of 50 to 100 million per car would be reasonable. This way at least some of the unicorns will go to the legit players who earned the money honestly because I don´t think that the glitch users will be checking the auction house 24/7. And if some of those cars should be won by glitch users it doesn´t matter if it cost them 50 million or one billion. Another thing that would be a good idea (if not already implemented) would be to make the unicorn cars unique so that one player can not own two or more of the same unicorn car.

Guys, i did have a VIP forza 3 but the disc broke, and i was wondering, if i Install another forza 3, does it count as my vip disc? And if it does, do i have to start a new forza 4 game to install the unicorn cars? if u can help me That would be very good, thanks!

JeanRob is correct, I signed on today to find an Aston Martin DB5 with a holiday livery, and a 2002 Mugen Integra Type-R unicorn car. Not sure if both cars are VIP only though, or if everyone got the Aston

I got the 1964 Aston Martin DB5 Vantage yesterday and then read about the 2002 Honda Mugen Integra Type-R online. I became a VIP and a few hours later I got the festive Mugen and this achievement :) Thanks Turn 10 and seasons greetings to you!

Warning to anyone else who tries, deleting your Forza 4 game save in order to reimport your Forza 3 file with the VIP pack installed will not get you this achievement. Level 44 back to 0 and 800 MSP's down.

Ok. First of all, the achievement is kind of written wrong. You don’t actually have to “be the winning bidder.” You only have to OWN one of the cars in the unicorn car list. Second of all, Equinox80 was incorrect. Re-importing your Forza 3 file WILL get you the achievement. That’s how I got it. I will explain how below. Equinox may not have realized that even when you use Microsoft Points to buy the VIP car pack, you still have to go into the game to use in-game credits to purchase the car pack cars.

There are 3 ways to get this achievement (a 4th and unverified way is to have another player sell or gift one to you):

1ST WAY: The most obvious way it to win a unicorn auction with 999,999,999 credits. This IS possible. After completing the World Tour, you will have several

million credits, especially if you stuck with the same manufacturer to increase your affinity (the higher the affinity, the more credit bonuses). You can then work toward the Bucket List and earn several million more. Obviously, after all this is done, you still won’t have the billion credits needed. That’s where car tokens come in. If money isn’t an issue for you in the real world, you can use real money to purchase in-game car tokens to buy cars. Do that, then sell those cars for a discount in the auction house until you have 999,999,999 credits. (For example, buy a $10 million car, then sell it in the auction house for $5 or $7 million. People will be looking for discounts on cars for the Exclusive Taste achievement).

3RD WAY: The VIP car pack from Forza 3 contains two cars that are unicorn cars in Forza 4. Simply buy the VIP car pack with Microsoft Points, then go into the Forza 3 game and use in-game credits to purchase either (or both) the 2007 Ferrari 430 Scuderia or the 2007 Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera. Both are unicorn cars in Forza 4. (Yes, it sucks you need to use both Microsoft Points AND in-game credits to get the cars, but that’s the way it is.) Then, when you start Forza 4 for the first time, it will ask you if you want to upload your Forza 3 profile. Say yes and the achievement will unlock as long as you have those 2 cars in your garage in Forza 3.

y been playing Forza 4 and it’s too late to go back and upload your Forza 3 profile. No problem! Take a flash/thumb dive and stick it in the front of your Xbox. Go to your Xbox’s System Settings. Find your Forza 4 (not 3, just 4) save file. Move the Forza 4 file(s) to your flash drive. Remove the flash drive and restart your system with Forza 4. It will play as if it’s the first time you’re playing it since your save game isn’t on your hard drive anymore. This time, when it prompts you to upload your Forza 3 profile, say yes and you will unlock the achievement (as long as those 2 cars are in your Forza 3 garage during upload). Then just plug the flash drive back in and move your Forza 4 save files back to your hard drive.

2ND WAY - part 2: Receive a unicorn car from Turn 10 for being a Forza 4 VIP. They gave all VIPs a unicorn just before Christmas 2011. This unicorn was also given to people who became a VIP after the giveaway, as happened to me. The only problem with this method is that it is getting harder to find a Forza 4 collector's edition code.

3RD WAY alternative 1 - no need to move your save, just insert a flash drive then when Forza 4 starts, select the flash drive for your saves and it will start a new game and do the import. Just select the internal storage next time you play to continue with your original game.

3RD WAY alternative 2 - you don't need a flash drive as you can move your save to the cloud storage.

what i find really annoying is glitching or hacking, people get 999,999,999 cr and bid 999,999,999 cr on the unicorn cars the second they are put on auction, i have seen a few people do this on youtube and i think they should get banned.

I was checking my messages on F4 a few minutes ago and got one saying something about some random chevy i got, so i downloaded it to my garage and bam, got the achievement, however I never once bid on a unicorn car, my money is saved for the 5 most expensive cars in the game, im 2 away

I just got the Camaro SS and this achievement! What an awesome surprise, I hadn't even played this since like November.

Wow, I never thought I'd actually get this. Since I also picked up a Kinect in the last few weeks, and now also have the Kinect achievement, I guess I no longer have an excuse for not getting the full 1000...

play forza 3, get vip pack and play to level 50, then delete the forza 4 saved game from storage, and start from beginning. after the first race, you get a question to start a new profil on forza 4 or get level 50 cars from forza 3, take the level 50 cars from forza 3. then you get the unicorn hunter achievement

I am looking to buy a collection of 30 buggati veryon 16.4 on forza 4 I also though found that most cars on the auction house have designs so I am asking if anyone has any buggati veryon 16.4 msg me on xbox live I am looking to pay between 0 and 500000 please msg me @ Gummybear5000

heres what i did lent forza 3 of a mate cos i deleted my old save(what a noob)but had vip pack already so played till i got 100,000 then bought the 2009 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 then moved my forza 4 save to a usb start the game again then inport my save from forza 3

ADD me on xbox 360 and ill give you cr and you can goto my youtube channel to see that i really have the money to give to you. my youtube acount name is bignickorr10 just search my name and it will pop up. my GT is ORRxx420

Update - so i found out that you can beat rampage's time to get the car in February KOTT, however, onthe Forza FB page is says that to redeem the car you need the Februart car pack - are they making us spend 560 MSP just to get this??

Can some one please help me! I have no clue how to do this. I've beaten rampage's time round Lagunna seca - no unicorn car. I have downloaded and bought the february pack and got the rampage car - no fricken unicorn car! Is it as it says "win in auction house" ?? I've never even seen a unicorn car for sale nor I think seen one!!! Please please please give me some advice as most of the comments on here I have tried and they are talking sh¡t!!!! Rich

Rich ALSO people are talking of gifting unicorns, does this actually work??

I had no idea what unicorn car was or is but got game last night and imported forza 3 game profile(which never got that far into)and this cheevo poped up. Im sure ill be happy to sell it to someone to make some credits if I have some idea which car it is. Help and it could be yours!

this achievement is pissing me off as well. i have the limited edition of FM4 but not FM3. used codes. have VIP status. And you guys are all saying you got these free cars and I've gotten nothing. What gives.

Just got this achievement. I started reading the forzamotorsport.net forums and participated in some community events. Keep an eye out for johniwanna and any events he is a part of. Apparently, he is considered a "unicorn saint" and gives them out like candy for participation. Read the news articles on the site and keep an eye out in the forum. In his "Rear view mirror" blog, he had a contest asking people to post what they thought were "status symbol cars" vs "drivers cars". He said he would gift unicorns to the winners, but ended up giving one to EVERYONE who participated. Only took me a couple days on those forums to earn this. (Oh... it HAS to be gifted to you from a turn 10 person, no one else can gift it to you)

if i buy the vip membership for (1200msp) do i just get the 5 bonus cars and extra storefront slots or will turn 10 ramdomly gift me unicorn cars aswell if so how long after i buy it will i recive a unicorn car from turn 10

Got FM4 for Christmas and I see a lot of people are having problems with this achievement. When I imported my FM3 file, I only got like 11 cars out of, I think, 66 car garage(I hadn't installed the second FM4 disc yet). If I do have a unicorn car but it didn't import, can I import again?

Did Turn10 make it where you can't upload the unicorn cars anymore? I have I think 10 in my Forza 3 garage but none of them transferred over. The second time it did the same 10 cars it did the first time.

I registered on the Forza Forum and there is a thread which talks you through all the available Unicorn opportunities, one recently was posting a time on a rivals event that Kenan (Turn10 member) undertook, didn't need to beat him, just set a time.

Done that and due the Unicorn tomorrow when they're released, couldn't care less which one I get, just glad to get another 10G closer to completing this game!

@224 ---- yes, just received a unicorn from the new rewards system at forzamotorsport.net. When i first heard about it from 223 i went to the site and didn't receive one. turns out you have to be a tier 4 or higher to get unicorns. A new one every month. Also had to borrow a friends disc 2 content install because the unicorn they sent me was part of disc 2 (1950-2000 car pack)

I got a unicorn car it's the 1993 MINE'S R32 Skyline GT-R. Unfortunately I don't have the DLC so I can download it. I'm going to ask for another unicorn car.

for those wondering how to get unicorn cars, just simply go to Forzamotorsport.net. Just "read" some news and post a comment about it make sure it's kind of interesting. Then leave your gamertag and the unicorn car you want. :)

@233 If you have disc 2 for Forza 4, You don't need to buy anything. All unicorn cars are free to download. Unfortunately I didn't have disc 2, so I ended up buying the "car pack" for my Unicorn car. The unicorn car I chose was the 2007 Shelby GT500 :)

hey, anyone can help me getting one unicorn car, it doesnt matter what car..just for the achievement. If you cant just give me one, at least explain to me how to do it, because im new on xbox Thanks btw

How you are supposed to get this achievement in 2014? there are no unicorn auctions for month. so how you can get one? winning them in an online monthly challenge doesnt give you the achievement right? Maybe someone can help me out. Tag: SWYD1

Looks like they have now stopped giving them away on the forzamotorsport.net forums now too. I believe this achievement is now officially impossible to obtain now, unless you bought the Forza 3 VIP Pack before it was removed from the XBL market place. :(
